Cosentino will open a new U.S. hub based in Hampton, Va., in summer 2013. The space will become the second central logistics and receiving facility for Cosentino, which manufactures Silestone natural quartz, ECO by Cosentino recycled surfacing, Sensa granite, Prexury semi-precious stones, natural stone and the soon-to-be launched Dekton by Cosentino architectural surface.
Cosentino’s Hampton facility will have more than 160,000 square feet of warehouse and office space and will serve as a central location to receive all Cosentino brands manufactured in Spain for customers along the East Coast. The facility will catalog and store the products, expediting distribution to regional centers, home improvement centers, fabricators and kitchen and bath specialty stores to meet demand from customers.
“Cosentino’s Northeast hub is located in close proximity to the port, making it an ideal location to receive shipments from Spain – where all of the Cosentino brands are manufactured,” said Lorenzo Marquez, VP of marketing for Cosentino North America. “This second hub will complement our Houston logistics hub, allowing for Cosentino to expedite shipments for the growing residential and commercial needs along the entire East Coast, as well as supplying the eight Cosentino centers in the region.”
